So I thought I would break out the ol’ KitchenAid Stand Mixer & whip up some Apple Fritter Cupcakes. They are really simple to make, line your tins, whip up your batter, fill your wrappers & add a little dollop of pie filling & bake. That simple!
Fall baking doesn’t have to be complicated. But it’s always delicious & makes the house smell amazing. Which is why you should jump in & start baking!!! While you’re at it you should enter this AWESOME GIVEAWAY….

Best Apple Cupcakes for Fall
That’s a pretty fabulous prize! Have you seen those new KitchenAid black & stainless steel appliances? I’m swooning.
They are so sleek & luxurious. Plus they would go nicely with my red mixer – even though it’s knocking on 15 years old now. Someday I can upgrade that to a new professional line KitchenAid Stand Mixer.
Just thinking of new applicances gives me motivation to make some more apple recipes. I know the family is already begging me to make more of these cupcakes. They are so delicious.
